Who was Toussaint Charbonneau's wife?
His most famous wife was Sacajawea, who along with her husband, served as guide on the "Lewis and Clark expedition". She, along with another young Indian girl, had been purchased by Charbonneau a few years before. Sacajawea gave birth to their son, Jean Baptiste, shortly before the start of the expedition. She died about seven years later, at the age of twenty five. He had an unknown number of wives throughout his life.
Did Sacajawea get married before or after her expedition?
Before. At the age of about sixteen Sacagawea married a French trapper, Toussaint Charbonneau, who was also concurrently married to another Shoshone woman (he had purchased both from the Hidatsa as slaves). Sacagawea was pregnant with their first child when the Corps of Discovery arrived in the area to spend the winter of 1804/5. Needing someone to interpret the Hidatsa language, Lewis and Clark interviewed Charbonneau for the job. Although they were not overly impressed with him, the deal was sealed when they discovered that Sacagawea spoke Shoshone, an added bonus. Sacagawea would become invaluable in her role as interpreter.
How many children did Toussaint Charbonneau have?
When Toussaint settled among the Mandan and Hidatsa tribes near present-day Bismarck, North Dakota, he purchased two captive Shoshone women: Sacagawea and "Otter Woman", from the Hidatsa.After the expedition and after Sacagawea's death, evidence suggests he gained another wife, much younger than himself while living at Fort Mandan. He had no children by her, and they were not married long before he died.
How did Pocahontas help Lewis and Clark?
Pocahontas did not help Lewis and Clark, she was dead long before their expedition. You are thinking of Sacajawea: Sacajawea (or Sacagawea) was born c. 1788. She was a Shoshone woman whom Toussaint Charbonneau, a French Canadian trapper, acquired from a Hidatsa warrior. Lewis and Clark would winter at the present site of Bismarck, North Dakota, where they met her. Sacagawea was 16 or 17 when she and her husband, Toussaint Charbonneau, joined the Lewis and Clark party in the winter of 1804-05. She became invaluable as a guide in the region of her birth, near the Three Forks of the Missouri, and as a interpreter between the expedition and her tribe when the expedition reached that area. She would give birth during the expedition to Jean-Baptiste Charbonneau on February 11, 1805, whom Clark later raised and educated. She also quieted the fears of other Native Americans, for no war party traveled with a woman and a small baby. She was with the Corps of Discovery until they arrived back in St. Louis on September 23, 1806. Some Native American oral traditions relate that rather than dying in 1812, Sacagawea left her husband Charbonneau, crossed the Great Plains and married into a Comanche tribe, then returned to the Shoshone in Wyoming where she died in 1884.
Did Sacajawea meet Lewis and clarke before she had Pomp or after she had him?
before
Did Sacajawea have her baby before she left with Lewis and Clark?
no not until after
Did Sacajawea ever go back to her tribe?
There's very little information concerning Sacagawea after the expedition. Some Native American oral traditions relate that rather than dying in 1812, Sacagawea left her husband Charbonneau, crossed the Great Plains and married into a Comanche tribe, then returned to the Shoshone in Wyoming where she died in 1884.
When was Sacagawea's mother born?
This cannot be determined as little is known with any certainty of her life before she was kidnapped as an approximately 12 year old child from her tribe in 1800 in what is now Idaho and sold into slavery, eventually being bought by the French trapper Toussaint Charbonneau becoming one of several nonconsensual "wives" at about age 13. Some stories incorrectly say that Sacajawea's mother was another of Toussaint Charbonneau's nonconsensual "wives" purchased as a slave earlier by the name of Otter Woman (born c.a. 1786-1788), but this is not possible as Otter Woman could not have been more than a year or two older than Sacajawea herself (if that).
